The TLS implementation in the Cavium cryptographic-module firmware, as distributed with Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Software 9.1(5.21) and other products, does not verify the MAC field, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof TLS content by modifying packets, aka Bug ID CSCuu52976.
Weaknesses in this category are related to the design and implementation of data confidentiality and integrity. Frequently these deal with the use of encoding techniques, encryption libraries, and hashing algorithms. The weaknesses in this category could lead to a degradation of the quality data if they are not addressed.
